That is the vitesse that Brad recently bought and then sold. It was a manual and he can only drive automatics. He sold it for a lot less than this is advertised for.

Re: R24 AAB - Vitesse Coupe - immaculate - 189,900 miles
Still MOTd and Taxed. Wonder where...
In April 2010 it had done 56830 miles. In April 11 it had 172418 miles Some year!
Bit of searching suggests South Wales - Selling at all?

Re: R24 AAB - Vitesse Coupe - immaculate - 189,900 miles
My Jeep has a random entry in it's history like that. Though the opposite way to this car.
2 September 2016 63,753 miles
4 September 2015 124,918 miles
14 October 2014 54,030 miles
Must have mixed the paperwork up when entering it?

It had done 90k in 2006 and seemed to climb steadily at the rate of 15-18k a year until 2012 when it dropped to between 100 and 1500 a year until 2018 when it did about 3k to 2019 which sort of suggests it was used by someone for work who then retired in 2012 and used it a little until 2018 then sold it to the present owner. Bear in mind the MoT test on any given year could be just after or just before it changed hands so the "new" mileage pattern may or may not show for anything up to a year. Might be the current owner bought it 6 months through the last MoT and did those 3k miles in 6 months and next year it will show a jump of 6k miles for the year or maybe the previous owner suddenly did 2k in the last 10 months of ownership and the new owner did 1k before the MoT a month early and will be doing 12k a year.
For a 22 year old car though, 200k miles isn't bad, it's less than 10k a year on average.

Re: R24 AAB - Vitesse Coupe - immaculate - 189,900 miles
My coupe has both an engine oil leak and a power steering fluid leak ever since I've driven the car.
The first few months owning, the coupe was parked up with a piece of plywood underneath it. Checking for such leaks whilst keeping the floor clean.
Oddly enough, until last years MOT (when the testing regime was altered) the car never had advisories for any type of leaks.
So it's now got an advisory for engine oil leak.
No advisory for power steering leak.
One year the coupe got failed for the bonnet catch not closing on the drivers side.
I did a botch fix and then that fix came undone conveniently after the car passed the MOT.
The next year - car went for MOT and the problem was there. Guess what? No mention of that bonnet issue, not even an advisory.
The coupe still failed (but only on the top suspension pin at the front)
Best MOT result so far..

MM Maybe not so keen now. Seems to have rusted a lot in a year, or a different MOT station.

Re: R24 AAB - Vitesse Coupe - immaculate - 189,900 miles
All of that sounds very like the sills Scott, apart from the fuel filler neck of course.
I was looking at the filler neck from my Volvo yesterday, looks very similar at the top (where the Rover ones go) and may be an alternative to the usual route with filler necks. I think it's also the right diameter to fit straight into the hose from the tank and is probably long enough as well. It also has the breather pipe running down the side of it but not the vapour loops.
Given the sills are a known rust area on the Coupe, if the sills have been done it should be good for quite some time yet!
